Trump and Musk are gutting the programs our kids need to succeed—undermining education, wrecking research, and hitting Southern California’s economy hard. I won’t stand for it.

Congressional Republicans want to slash $880 BILLION from Medicaid to pay for tax cuts to billionaires. I went to Vista Community Clinic to speak out.

Elon Musk has no business interfering in veterans’ health care. The VA is not his plaything. This is not a company he can take over and break apart like he’s done with Twitter. We are talking about millions of veterans’ lives and their private information.

One of my top priorities in Congress has been working to fight the homelessness crisis in our community. I’m glad I was able to secure $2.25 million in federal funding to help open Oceanside’s first year-round homeless shelter, and I’ll keep fighting for the resources we need.

From the Trump Admin’s recent actions to discussing Elon Musk, the Appropriations Committee, and the spent fuel at San Onofre, I sat down with the OC Register to talk about what I’ve been working on in Washington.

Incompetent chaos from Trump and Musk: They’re firing “probationary” federal employees—but either don’t realize or don’t care that this includes people recently promoted to be managers or supervisors who are doing a good job. This isn’t efficiency, it’s reckless and dangerous.

Andrew is one of the thousands of people in our community hoping for a cure. The administration’s decision to cut funding for medical research hurts Andrew, his family, and the countless others in our community just like him.

Congressional Republicans want to cut Medicaid to give tax breaks to billionaires and giant corporations. They are telling working families, seniors, and people with disabilities that it is OK for them to get sicker so that billionaires like Elon Musk can get even richer.

It’s critical we move the spent nuclear fuel at San Onofre as quickly and safely as possible. We have a bipartisan plan—through funding, legislation, and negotiation—to make it happen. It won’t happen overnight, but we will get it done.

Just wrapped up a press conference in San Diego—the VA just arbitrarily fired 1,000+ workers, which could mean longer wait times and worse care for our veterans. I’m all for efficiency, but this isn’t it.

DOGE, aka Destruction of Government by Elon, is acting without consulting Congress and doing great harm. The federal government is not a company he can take over and break apart like he’s done with Twitter. youtu.be/_lYMlkeCxWE

We are watching an attempted Great Billionaire Takeover of our government. We cannot abandon the checks and balances that our Founders created. The risk to our nation is too high. https://buff.ly/42WgIHH

House Republicans just unveiled their plan to rip away health care from kids, seniors, and people with disabilities. And for what? To give tax breaks to billionaires like Elon Musk. You can’t make this stuff up.

House Republicans just released their proposed budget. Under their plan, anyone who gets health care through the Affordable Care Act would see their costs increase by $3,370 per year. For what? More tax breaks for billionaires.

The Trump Admin is shutting down the agency that protects Americans from fraud and predatory lending—without Congress. It’s not just bad policy; it’s another attack on Congress itself. Have Congressional Republicans no understanding of checks and balances?

Trump and his allies are dismantling checks and balances, overriding Congress, and handing power to a few billionaires. This Great Billionaire Takeover threatens our schools, our economy, and our democracy. But we are not powerless. I’m fighting back—and I need you to stay in the fight with me.
